Shorewood Project Narrative
Project Name – TBD by marketing/real estate professionals
Applicant – TSML Properties, LLC
Address – 24250 Smithtown Road, Shorewood, MN
Project Outline
TSML Properties, LLC is looking to develop 24250 Smithtown Road, Shorewood, MN alongside 24320
Smithtown Road, Tonka Bay, MN. These two properties make up 2.58 acres known as the gross site area
and 1.46 acres of Shorewood gross site area. The current zoning is Single Family Res. and is being
utilized as such. The 2040 Land Use Guide has the property zoned as Multi Family Res. We are proposing
a planned unit development (PUD) land use. We are currently not requesting any variances.
The plan requires the current structure at 24250 Smithtown Road to be demolished.
We plan to conserve as many trees as possible on the east/north side for privacy with plans to
plant additional trees (see landscape plans).
The entry from Smithtown Road into the private drive is proposed to be adjusted to 90’ degrees
which creates an optimal traffic layout compared to existing layout.
The filtration basin is within the easement of Hennepin County which we have had positive
discussions with. The reason we located the infiltration basin in the location we had shown is
because it is at the low point of the site and adjacent to the only storm sewer we can connect
to. Our plan is to completely remove the existing retaining wall and lower grades along that area
in order to install the Stormwater basin. In the end there will be no wall along the county road,
lower grades and better visibility.
Each unit shall offer parking for two (2) cars in the garage, and four (4) cars in the driveway. We
have proposed additional parking at the start of the project to ensure future homeowners have
adequate space.
Our concept plans have gone through several iterations after discussions with Tonka Bay, Shorewood,
and Hennepin County. The project is proposed to have twelve (12) twin home units. The pads are
approximately 35’ x 67’. We plan to offer association maintained units with the idea of “one level living”.
We are extremely excited to work with the city of Shorewood to ensure this development brings years
of prosperity to the city!
